Another Day's End (classical version)

Hank delivers the goods on this tear jerking countrified soulful rocker about a man on the outs of a relationship.  Hank's soulful ever gritty vocals, his country style guitar, and gospel style piano paints a hard hearted story each verse getting more and more intense building to a final roundup of emotion complete with string section and haunting steel guitar, when you hear this song, you know why they call him Hank, 

Cryin In The Night
By Hank Rusch

Oh, I try to keep our lovelight burnin'
But now I see it growin' dim
I finally realized why you're always cryin'
You're gonna leave me for him

Every night it's the same
You wake up weepin' and callin' his name
Then you cry yourself back to sleep
You can't hide the secret that you keep

Is there somethin' you want to tell me?
Or are you gonna say everything's allright?
Is there somethin' you want to tell me?
Or are you gonna cry in the night?

I know it won't be long
With the plans you're makin'
soon I'll be gone
but I ain't gonna make easy for you
I think it's time for you to tell the truth

Is there somethin' you want to tell me?
Or are you gonna say everything's allright?
Is there somethin' you want to tell me?
Or are you gonna cry in the night?
are you gonna cry, cry in the night?
Tell me baby, Tell me baby, don't tell me lies
Tell me now in the night, and in the mornin'
In the mornin' I'll be gone
No, No, No, don't cry anymore, baby
Tell the truth and dry your eyes
I know why, I know why, you cry in the night
Cry, Cry, Oooooooh! Cryin' in the night
Cryin' Cryin' Cryin' Cryin' in the night

Cryin In The Night

Transience captures fleeting moments — memories, emotions, and thoughts that drift between presence and disappearance. Written and produced over the past few years, these pieces reflect change, impermanence, and quiet transformation. Each track moves through subtle textures, piano echoes, and ambient layers, forming a contemplative journey through time and sound.

Blossom

You’re Gonna Go Far

“Trap Town” opens Dark Music For Dark People with a slow descent into the city’s shadow. A dark piano theme threads through the track, joined by distorted trumpet tones echoing like distant car horns. Wilt Flowers’ bass and Guy Stansfield’s clarinet weave counterpoints beneath Sticks Thompson’s restrained percussion, while Sonny Rhodes’ piano drifts between smoky melancholy and menace.

A haunting mix of dark jazz, doom jazz, and cinematic noir, Trap Town evokes the tension of deserted streets and flickering lights long past midnight.

Ode To Me

A gentle acoustic journey that drifts between daydreams and open fields. Warm guitars, soft melodies, and a touch of country soul blend into a soothing, nostalgic sound — perfect for quiet mornings, long drives, or moments of reflection. This track captures the feeling of sunlight on your skin and the peace of letting your mind wander.

Day Dreamer

Ils sont là comme des cons 
Attendant leurs pensions 
On leur dit de ne pas bouger 
Que ce n'est qu'un cap à passer 

Menace rouge et soleil vert 
Une dose de plus dans les artères 
Une dose de démocratie pour mieux vous faire taire 
C'est le bal des abrutis 
Le bal des endormis 
Le bal des abrutis qui applaudissent sur leurs sorts
C'est le bal des abrutis 
Le bal des endormis 
Le bal des abrutis 
Que veux-tu que je te dise

Moutons affamés attendant la tonte 
Moutons se jetant dans le précipice 
Moutons finis à la pisse 
Complices involontaires et gaulois réfractaires.
Complices involontaires les genoux à terre.

Le bal des abrutis

Canción para Alejandro

Como el sol fuiste un suave amanecer
y el reloj se paró para verte nacer:
en tus ojos no cabía más amor.

La niñez te forjó como explorador
y el viajar te enseñó a mirar sin rencor:
no consiste en vencer sino en cómo convencer.

Estribillo

Vas creciendo y tu valía
la refrendas más cada día
pues el corazón te dicta el buen hacer.

Puedo ver también en tu alma
que el chaval con el que jugaba
 se quedó y nunca dejará de ser.

----------------------------

Cada vez siento más en tu forma de ser
el afán por saber y por la honradez:
¡los pilares que más falta hacen  hoy!

La niñez te forjó como explorador
y el viajar te enseñó a mirar sin rencor:
no consiste en vencer sino en cómo convencer.

Estribillo

No consiste en vencer sino en cómo convencer.
No consiste en vencer sino en cómo convencer.

Song for Alejandro

Like the sun, you were a gentle dawn,
and time stood still to witness your birth:
your eyes held no more love.

Childhood shaped you as an explorer,
and travel taught you to see without resentment:
it's not about winning, but about how to convince.

Chorus

You keep growing, and your worth
is reaffirmed more each day,
for your heart dictates what is right.

I can also see in your soul
that the boy I used to play with
remained and will never cease to be.

----------------------------

More and more, I feel in your character
the thirst for knowledge and for honesty:
the pillars most needed today!

Childhood shaped you as an explorer,
and travel taught you to see without resentment:
it's not about winning, but about how to convince.

Chorus

It's not about winning, but about how to convince.

It's not about winning, but about how to convince.

Canción para Alejandro
